Lisa Ling Expecting First Child

The TV journalist and her physician and biotech firm president husband are set to welcome their first child, a daughter. Ling, who hosts the documentary series Our America on OWN, revealed her exciting news on Anderson Live.

The mom-to-be, 39, is thrilled, especially after her heartbreaking miscarriage in 2010.

“I felt more like a failure than I’d felt in a very long time,” Ling, said of losing her pregnancy at seven weeks. “When I heard the doctor say there was no heartbeat it was like bam, like a knife through the heart.”
